There’s all the time no less than one ugly sweater immediate floating round Instagram for December. It’s custom and it’s enjoyable when you’ve embraced the reality that ugly actually means cheesy. And I really like cheesy. The extra I have a look at these nails, the extra I really like them. I’m all the time one for rainbows, however I have a tendency to make use of them in an organized style (as you’ll see later right this moment). With this one I simply slapped colours on the nails and stamped chaotic nail patterns on high. It went surprisingly quick as soon as I obtained began.

Flipside Nails

For an additional deal with, we added yum to the stomach of the beasts. I in all probability ought to have been pickier concerning the stamps I utilized to my clear falsies earlier than I painted the remainder of this nail artwork design, however even meh pickups look beautiful. Flipside is so addicting. I’ve needed to persuade myself a number of instances that I don’t want extra as a result of solely two sorts of clear falsies feels so limiting. I ought to in all probability end certainly one of my different “varieties” first although. 😂

Gadgets in italics are debuting on the weblog for the primary time.

It has been a very long time since I used nail foils. They only sit quietly within the drawers behind me; out of sight and out of thoughts. The final time I attempted ended up being a fail. Maniology included some kind of smooth blue-green patterned nail foil with their literary ManixMe field and I attempted utilizing them as a background and couldn’t get them to use very nicely so I gave up and painted a totally totally different design (Anne of Inexperienced Gables when you’re questioning).

This time I succeeded. It in all probability helped that the foils are strong colours and I used to be going for chaos so it didn’t matter how they utilized. I used Maniology’s nail foil glue and probably didn’t do the perfect utility? It left brush strokes that made the foils apply in streaks. Fortunately that smoothed out with the water-based high coat (a should with foils or they dissolve and break up). I don’t know if the issue is me, the product or the age of the product. (Nail foil glue can’t take the chilly. By no means order it in winter.) Thusly, I presently I can’t suggest Maniology’s glue, however that doesn’t imply it’s truly unhealthy. Enjoyable!

I actually need to play with the nail foils once more. Hopefully I’ll have extra solutions for you then.
